- Description
- This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation, quotes are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. DESCRIPTION: The Utah National Guard has a requirement for lease, installation, and maintenance of 16 each Indirect-Fired Portable Heaters. Heaters must be installed and ready for use by 1 November 2009. This contract will be for one (1) year with two (2) option years. SPECIFICATIONS/PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT: 1.GENERAL The Forward Operating Base (FOB) is located at Camp Williams, Riverton, UT on the range west of Redwood Road. It is similar to FOBs utilized by deployed troops in Afghanistan and Iraq. The 640th Regiment, Regional Training Institute (RTI) utilizes the northern portion of the FOB during a field training exercise (FTX) as part of its Warrior Leader Course (WLC). During the FTX students are in the field for six (6) days. They occupy the tents periodically during the day as warming structures and at night to sleep. During cold weather months (November-March) it is necessary to heat the tents. The purpose of this contract is to provide all equipment, LPG supply tanks and piping, installation and maintenance for heating tents at the Camp Williams FOB. 2.TENTS The tents while lined are not insulated. One tent has the approximate dimensions of 40 L x 18 W x 8 H. Each tent is placed on a concrete pad and has 110V power available. There is a small pad between each pair of tents that has 220V power supply used to operate a heat pump (one heat pump for two (2) tents) for cooling during the summer months. There are 16 sets of tents or 32 tents that require heating. It is intended that one (1) LPG heater will heat two tents. During cold weather months, temperatures at the FOB can drop below 0 F overnight. The RTI conducts daily risk assessments to determine when ambient temperatures are too low to conduct operations. When that occurs, students are removed from the field. Heating supply for each tent must be adequate to maintain a temperature of 60 F overnight. 3.LPG HEATER SPECIFICATIONS -Indirect fire -450,000 BTU maximum output -115V/1 phase/15 amp to 120V/1 phase/20 amp -Thermostat control -3,100 CFM -Propane fueled -5 gallons/hour max consumption In addition to the specification noted above, the units must also meet the following safety requirements: -Indirect forced air heater that prevents the burner exhaust from entering the fresh air intake system. The fresh air intake port and exhaust gas ports are separate and cannot be diverted to each other. This prevents the recirculation of carbon monoxide (CO) gas into the area to be heated. The heater will remain outside of any buildings, tent or other enclosed structures. -The heater meets OSHA 29CFR1926.154 and 29CFR1910.110 standards. -There are no United States Consumer Products Safety Commission (USCPSC) recalls found. - 4.EQUIPMENT REQUIREMENTS In addition to the LPG heaters, the contractor will provide all ancillary equipment to include the following: -Insulated duct work to divert heat from one (1) heater into two (2) tents -Thermostat for each tent -CO monitors for each tent 5.LPG SUPPLY TANKS AND PIPING The contractor will provide LPG supply tanks and piping necessary to supply fuel for the 16 heaters. All LPG tanks and supply lines must meet the following requirements: -OSHA 29CFR1910.110 Storage and Handling of Liquefied Petroleum Gases -Any other requirements for location, installation and maintenance required by the Utah National Guard, Construction and Facilities Management office (CFMO), and the Camp Williams Facility Maintenance Office (to be provided in writing at the site visit). 6.SITE VISIT A site visit will be conducted on Tuesday, September 8, 2009 at 10:00 A.M. to view the FOB, tent configuration and possible location of LPG supply tanks and piping locations.
